Past Faceoffs

Predictions

These are two very similar teams, with similar results and only minor differences.

Mongolz have beaten Monster recently, and crushed nxl and insidious, but suffered a loss just before from nxl. These results are pretty good for them. Tyloo similarly beat nxl and insidious. Last time these teams met in a BO3 The Mongolz barely edged it out.

Getting down to the basics, Mongolz are only slightly favored here. A few reasons for that – Machinegun and ncl are crazy good fraggers, probably better than anyone on Tyloo, which at this level matters a lot. The Mongolz also seem to take the whole CS scene a bit more seriously, they play more together as a team and it shows in their map pool. They have a pretty deadly Mirage, cache, dust2, and inferno. While Tyloo’s map pool does stretch a bit further, in this case in means their core maps aren’t as strong. In a BO3 they may catch Mongolz off in one of those maps, but the two others played Tyloo will probably be slightly disadvantaged.

In the end, this is pretty close to a 50-50 match, either team could turn up. The fact The Mongolz are slight underdogs and that I favor them slightly makes this a bit easier to put a small bet on them. But this is pretty risky, I wouldn’t go much more. Goodluck 🙂
